Abstract

This research is focused on the analyzing and mapping the pedagogical and content knowledge (PCK) of In-Service English High-School teachers in Indonesia in responding the Indonesian Curriculum Changing namely Curriculum 2013. This study was also conducted since the score of Teacher Competencies Test (UKG) for Indonesian ESL teacher was still low. Therefore, the questionnaire was designed and adapted from TPACK questionnaire to gather the data of Indonesian ESL Senior High School Teacher on their perception and understanding on Pedagogical Knowledge (PK), Content Knowledge (CK), Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (PCK) and also their understanding on Curriculum changing (CC) that happened recently. The data showed that the result of the teacher’s Pedagogical Knowledge (PK) and Content Knowledge (CK) were quite high with the score 50% which means that the teacher thought that they were quite competence on both knowledge. Meanwhile, there were more than 60% teachers believed that they were highly competence in implementing Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (PCK) on their teaching practice. However, in term of responding the curriculum change, most of the teachers gave the response as a quite competence rather than highly competence on the issue of curriculum changing. In short, this research shows the teacher’s perception of their own knowledge that they had in responding on Pedagogical Content Knowledge also the new curriculum knowledge. Therefore, this research is expected to be as another supporting evidence to confirm and mapping the teacher’s competences which is not only relying on the result of teacher competencies test/UKG.

Abstract

This research intended to examine the psychometric characteristics of the Indonesian version of the instrument used in evaluating the performance of pre-service teachers when practicing online teaching which was adapted from Howard. This quantitative study used convenience sampling technique by conducting a survey to collect respondent data. A total of 13 questionnaire items were developed using a 5-point Likert scale ranging from Strongly Disagree (1) to Strongly Agree (5). Data were collected from 88 students who were carrying out online teaching practices or who had finished carrying out these activities. Several statistical analyzes were performed using Rasch analysis to assess unidimensionality, reliability, item statistic, person and item measure, and wright maps. The findings of this study revealed that the items in Howard's Indonesian version of the questionnaire are less valid and less reliable with the Indonesian sample, and the items do not retain the psychometric characteristics of the original scale because it failed to meet the minimum criteria of 0.80 logits. Implications and recommendations were discussed and offered with reference to the findings.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the representation of culture and gender in visual and verbal texts in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) textbooks used by upper secondary school students. A content analysis was conducted on three EFL textbooks for upper secondary school students, using Xiao's (2010) framework to guide the analysis of culture “small-c”representation, and Brugeilles and Cromer's (2009) study to examine gender character according to their roles portrayed in the textbooks. The findings revealed that the highest number of visual illustrations was predominantly presented in the lifestyle aspect, followed by customs, values, holidays, hobbies, and food. It was also observed that gender representation was equally represented in the verbal text, but not proportionally in the visuals. The findings indicate that culture and gender awareness among students could be improved if textbooks provided a more balanced representation of various cultures encompassing source culture, target culture, and international target culture, and paid more attention to the equal treatment of genders.

It investigates whether Facebook as an e-portfolio helps students assess their speaking skills due limited time in the class. In particular, the focus is on the students' engagement in speaking tasks and their views on the e-portfolio-based evaluation. The study took place for three months in a private junior high school in Jakarta which consisted of 20 students. Classroom observations, questionnaires, and reflective journals were employed to collect the data. Using Kose's coding strategy (2006), the data was transcribed and coded. This unveiled the students' strategies for using Facebook to document speaking activities, with most relying on memorization (54%). The research also affirmed the effectiveness of Facebook as an e-portfolio instrument and found that Facebook is integrated well, giving positive results in operational descriptions, compatibility, and evaluative judgments. While some students perceived the benefits of adopting the e-portfolio via Facebook, the overall feedback tends to be favorable acceptance and appreciation of the tool. The feedback highlights the significance of teachers' digital proficiency in guiding students, given the lack of a comprehensive scoring system, so that emphasizing the necessity for a structured-speaking rubrics for consistent evaluations. This study highlights the use of Facebook as an e-portfolio tool by providing useful insights into students' strategies, motivation, and perceptions, suggesting implications for language learning through technology-mediated assessment.   Penelitian kualitatif ini menyelidiki penggunaan Facebook sebagai elektronik portofolio (e-portofolio) untuk menilai kemahiran berbicara Bahasa Inggris sebagai Bahasa Asing (EFL).

Abstract

The current study aimed to examine the psychometric characteristics of an instrument used to evaluate academic writing creativity and self-efficacy scale among pre-service teachers, instructors, and school teachers. Using a convenience sampling, an adapted and expanded version of  Mitchell’s (2021) situated academic writing self-efficacy (SAWSES) questionnaire was distributed to 655 participants with three different occupation statuses, such as pre-service teacher (N = 315, 485%), TVET instructor (N = 80, 12%), and school teacher (N = 260, 40%). Unfortunately, due to the presence of outliers, of 655 data, only 582 data were used for Rasch statistical analyses, including the analysis of (a) unidimensionality, (b) reliability for the item and the person separation, (c) rating scale, (d) item bias, and (e) item differential function. The analysis of Differential Item Functioning (DIF) resulted that the academic writing creativity and self-efficacy scale could potentially be biased when employed to collect the data from participants with differing teaching statuses and educational backgrounds. These findings thus suggest that caution should be taken when using the Academic Writing Creativity and Self-Efficacy Scale, as highlighted by the results of the current study.

Abstract

The present study aimed to examine the academic writing creativity and self-efficacy of Indonesian school teachers. Under a survey design, a five-point Likert scale of Academic Writing Creativity and Self-Efficacy (ACSE) questionnaire was distributed to school teachers in Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi, of whom 262 voluntarily completed it. Rasch analysis was conducted on the quantitative data, with the results showing that almost half of Indonesian school teachers possess a low level of academic writing creativity and self-efficacy (N = 112, or 48.7%), some with a moderate level (N = 88, or 38.3%), and a few with a high level (N = 30, or 13%). Although teachers were found to have a strong ability to seek feedback on their writing from their colleagues and to make decisions about whether to accept or reject it, they lacked creativity in their academic writing, particularly their skill to express original ideas using a wide range of words and expressions in a grammatically correct manner. Moreover, their competence in utilizing technology for writing resources and assistance, such as researching pertinent literature, referencing accurately, paraphrasing effectively, and addressing spelling and other language errors, was limited. A discussion of the findings was presented in the article, and recommendations were offered regarding further academic writing training and research.
